Although a typical course of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) consists of 6 to 12 treatments, remission of depression has rarely been reported after a single treatment. We present the case of a 25-year-old woman hospitalized for a major depressive episode and suicidality, in the context of bipolar 1 disorder, whose symptoms fully remitted with 1 ECT. We also review the literature on rapid response to ECT.
虽然典型的电休克治疗(ECT)疗程包括6至12次治疗,但单次治疗后抑郁症缓解的情况鲜有报道。我们报告了一例25岁女性的病例,该患者因双相I型障碍伴重度抑郁发作和自杀倾向住院,其症状在接受1次ECT治疗后完全缓解。我们还回顾了关于ECT快速反应的文献。
